EMDR Intensives

EMDR Intensives provide a powerful, focused treatment option designed to address trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and performance enhancement in a condensed timeframe. Unlike traditional weekly therapy sessions, EMDR Intensives involve extended sessions over consecutive days, allowing for deep and continuous therapeutic work.

 

This accelerated format often leads to rapid symptom reduction and profound healing, helping clients achieve their goals more quickly and effectively. Our tailored approach integrates advanced EMDR techniques with holistic strategies to ensure a supportive and transformative experience.

​

Benefits of EMDR Intensives

What Does Research Say About the EMDR Intensive Format?

Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in patients with PTSD, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar, or even better, results, while reducing the risk that patients drop out prematurely. Learn more here and here.

​

  • Intensive EMDR treatment is feasible and is indicative of reliable improvement in PTSD symptoms in a very short time frame. Learn more here.

  • The economic benefit of intensive trauma treatment is compelling. Learn more here.

 

Even compared to other trauma therapy, the intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on

  1. checking in at the beginning of each session

  2. addressing current crises and concerns

  3. focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after trauma healing

  4. assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.

 

 

Who Can Participate in EMDR Intensives?

​

Anyone in Arizona, Colorado or Wyoming can participate in EMDR Intensives online from the comfort of their home.

​

However, no matter what state you live in, I can do intensive work with any client who travels to Tucson, Arizona. Tucson is home to several world class resorts for people who would like to travel to Tucson for an EMDR Intensive and recuperate at one of these resorts. We are happy to assist you in this process.

 

If I already have a therapist, can I do an EMDR intensive as adjunct therapy?

 

Many people who already see another therapist on a regular basis participate in EMDR intensive treatment. I am happy to collaborate with your ongoing therapist. EMDR can help provide shifts in healing that facilitate your ongoing treatment with your primary therapist. Sometimes clients can cognitively understand something through other treatments, but they struggle to fully integrate this knowing into their heart and bodies. An EMDR intensive can help you achieve more thorough integration.  We will identify what format is best for you during your initial consultation.
